Who I Can Be
Chapter Four: The One Who Holds the Power
Tecna made her way through the underground tunnels of Zenith. She kept her eyes on the path ahead of her, knowing that the tunnels wasn't the safest at night and it wasn't usually safe at all for a wealthy person. She quickened her pace as she caught sight of eyes in a darkened tunnel watching her. She walked on through the tunnels for about 20 minutes until she reached what looked like a dead end, but she knew it wasn't.
Tecna placed her hand on the wall of the tunnel's end and closed her eyes. When she opened them, another tunnel, a dark tunnel, had been shown before her. Once she walked on, the illusion of the tunnel's end re-formed behind her, thus, causing all light to be blocked out. Tecna formed a ball of green energy and lifted it up. As she walked, it followed her, giving her light.
After walking through the dark tunnel for another good 20 minutes, she came to two different tunnels. She knew which one to take, luckily, and she was aware that the other one led to a steep drop off that was really hard to notice due to it's small size and the considerable lack of light in the tunnels. So she walked on...
Meanwhile, Timmy was running from room to room looking for her when the phone rang.
"Hello, this is Timmy Cymone. Who is this?"
"Hi Timmy, it's Flora"
"Flora! I haven't talked to you in awhile. How have you been?"
"Good, thanks, is Tecna there?"
"She's not here at the moment... I can take down your number and have her call you back if that's alright."
"Umm. I'll just call back. Thanks Timmy, nice talking to you."
"You too, Flora, bye."
"Bye"
Timmy hung up the phone and continued his searching.
At the same time, Tecna reached another dead end. This time, she had to use quite a bit more energy to rid of the realistic illusion. When it disappeared, she didn't see another tunnel, but a large, round, metal room with an eerie glowing orb in the center of it on a metal stand.
Tecna felt stronger each time she took a step towards the orb. Once she reached it, she paused. After all the months of planning, she was doubting if she should go through with her plan. She decided to continue after a long while of thinking. She reached out and held the orb. She then produced energy within her hands that broke the orb's glass. What was left was the green, unstable power. She quickly motioned her hands towards her and pushed the power within her body to absorb it. She closed her eyes, He'll see... he'll finally see...
The shock to her body that came after absorbing the power was great, and it was almost too much for her to handle. If she hadn't have had any powers before, she probably wouldn't have made it. Instead, she fell unconscious on the cold metal floor.
